In order to acquire Liverpool and Manchester City target Josko Gvardiol in time for the 2023–24 season, Real Madrid are said to be preparing to spend a fortune.As per Fichajes.net, Los Blancos are enthused about marking the RB Leipzig focus back in the mid year move window.
Liverpool and Manchester City, two of the biggest teams in the Premier League, have also been said to be interested, but the Whites are said to be willing to spend more on the defender than the other two. The whole thing might cost Real Madrid a whopping €100 million, it has been said.
Croatia’s breakout star at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar was Gvardiol. The 21-year-old defender kept up with some of the best attackers in the business and exuded maturity beyond his years. Croatia finished third in Qatar thanks to his participation in all seven games and one goal.
The Daily Mail reports that Chelsea attempted to acquire Gvardiol last summer but were told that their €87.47 million offer was insufficient. The center back’s contract may contain a €109.62 million release clause that would take effect in 2024.
He is also wanted by Jurgen Klopp of Liverpool and Pep Guardiola of Manchester City, but it is unclear whether they are willing to match Leipzig’s €130 million asking price.In the summer of 2021, Gvardiol transferred from Dinamo Zagreb to Leipzig. He has since played 82 games for the German club, scoring multiple times and guaranteeing three helps.
